Butterfly Feet

What to do:

  1. Paint the bottoms of children’s feet—then carefully have them stand on a sheet of paper, feet together.
  2. When the imprints have dried, add spots or other decorations, cut out around the form, and you have butterflies.
  3. Compare sizes and shapes, and add feelers and legs if desired.
